Just wanted to post a warning that there is a new trojan
out there that changes the browsers url bar in such a way
that everytime u type a url and hit enter, instead of
going to the page, you are taken to hugesearch.net with
search options for what you typed.

I found a program called CWShredder that removes the
problem. Not usre if it removes the infection but it does
fic the browser problem.

If anyone has experienced this problem and has any idea
if further fixes are needed,lemme know
